Can anyone explain to me why it would be such a big problem to support PHP 6
and PHP 5 alongside one another? With PHP 6 effectively being a
Unicode-supporting version of PHP 5?
Or am I being weird and naive here?

As Andrei knows, I believe that not allowing to tune this on a per virtual
host basis, is going to make life very hard for our users. A huge part of
our users are hosting providers, or companies running multiple
applications
on the same machine. Probably a majority do not own dedicated boxes. This
kind of limitation is going to not only slow down PHP 6 adoption, but I
think it may also significantly impair PHP as a hosting friendly solution,
and therefore, we could actually see a loss in overall PHP market share.
I suggest to first make the theoreticaly decision that we prefer to
support
this on a per-request if it's feasible. When I say feasible it means with
some but minimal pain. If it becomes a disaster we should re-evaluate.
I'll
try and spend the next week to try and see what the issues are and whether
we can resolve them in an acceptable way.
